The Citizen (Gauteng)

Sibongisen­i’s picks

-

With relegation becoming more of a reality after each game for Ajax Cape Town, they will be looking to get the better of a resurgent Bidvest Wits when the two meet at Athlone Stadium tonight. Wits – who had a difficult start to the season – have found their form.

But the Urban Warriors find themselves in a very troubled position in the standings, languishin­g second from bottom with 24 points after 25 games. In all of those games, Ajax have only managed six wins, while recording six draws and losing 13.

Muhsin Ertugral’s team lost four of their last five fixtures, while their only win came at the hands of fellow strugglers SuperSport United. With Wits not really at their best as yet, Ertugral will feel this is a chance for him to go for the jugular. It’s going to be a very tactical game but Ajax should manage to eke out a point. So A draw will be a fair result for both. Pool name: S6 V1 P1 M1: SuperSport United v Orlando Pirates. Pirates have struggled against SuperSport in recent times. Tip: Draw = 2 M2: Ajax Cape Town v Bidvest Wits. Previewed above. Tip: Draw = 2 M3: Bayern Munich v Sevilla. Not easy to get out of Munich with a positive result. Tip: Bayern win = 1 M4: Oldham Athletic v Walsall. Interestin­g tie this. But Oldham should take it. Tip: Oldham win = 1 M5: Real Madrid v Juventus. Juve were beat and battered at home. Tip: Madrid win = 1 M6: Wolverhamp­ton v Derby County. Derby need the points more. Tip: Derby win = 3 Bet on this pool and TAB’s other football pools – go to
